unless you own a commercial one which costs allot more money.

The commercial license does not necessarily mean you can trade it like a MTG card. The general purpose of a commercial license is to have a seat that can be rotated by different developers under one team or company.

At least, that is the most common practice.

I'm almost positive that even the Commercial licenses cannot be sold, there may be some legalese in there that allows it and I haven't noticed.

They are transferable in the sense that they are treated as seats for the company that owns the license. That way if you lose a programmer you can fill that slot with another warm body.
